Why do plastic surgery practices need Web Design in 2026?

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Below are the questions plastic surgery practices ask most often before hiring a web design agency. Each answer reflects how Foundgrove approaches helping US service businesses win qualified leads from search and AI.

How long does a website project take?

A standard 15-25 page marketing site takes 8-12 weeks from kickoff to launch: roughly 1-2 weeks of discovery, 3-4 weeks of design, 4-5 weeks of build, and a week of launch QA. Larger sites with custom features like calculators, portals, or integrations add 2-6 weeks. We never compromise quality to hit a date and will tell you honestly if a deadline is unrealistic before you commit.

What's included in a website build?

Our build starts at $8,500 and includes a discovery workshop, custom mobile-first design in Figma, a Next.js site with TypeScript and Tailwind, schema markup, sitemap, robots.txt and llms.txt, analytics and conversion tracking, a headless CMS so your team can edit content, and 30 days of post-launch CRO and bug fixes. Pricing is fixed-fee, not hourly, so there are no surprise charges within the agreed scope.

Do I own the website, code, and content?

Yes, fully. You own the codebase, the design files, the content, and the CMS, and we hand everything off so nothing is locked inside agency-only tools. We integrate a headless CMS like Sanity or Contentful with a training session and a written guide so you can edit pages and add posts without us. Maintenance is optional and month-to-month with no minimum, so you are never tied in to keep your own site running.

Is the site built for SEO and Core Web Vitals?

Yes — SEO and performance are baked in from day one, not bolted on later. We build on Next.js with static generation, image optimization, and edge delivery to target sub-2-second loads and strong Core Web Vitals, and we ship semantic HTML, schema markup, a sitemap, and an llms.txt file so the site is ready for both Google and AI search. A fast, well-structured site gives any future SEO or paid work a much stronger foundation.

Should I redesign or rebuild, and can you migrate my current site?

If your current platform is slow, hard to edit, or weak on SEO, a rebuild on Next.js usually pays off more than a surface redesign; if the foundation is sound, a focused redesign may be enough, and we will tell you honestly which fits. We migrate from WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, and Webflow with URL mapping and 301 redirects to preserve SEO equity, plus a side-by-side staging site so you see the new build before you switch.
